This is a silk and satin LeMoyne Star with broken dishes pattern joining
blocks. This regal little quilt was created solely as embellishment and
never meant for a child to use. Baby quilts are washed all the time;
silk quilts are not. This piece was probably created for an affluent
family's infant. I've seen formal evening wear made from the same
fabric. Comprised of 40 6-1/2” blocks that have been machine pieced to
create a stunning wall hanging for today's homes. The colors are this
year's spring designer colors and would be exquisite on a wall or to
place on the dining room table as decoration. The backing is an early
rayon solid pink. This optical illusion quilt will enhance and add
sophistication to any decor.
